On issue after issue, Republican State Senator Martin J. Golden is dangerous for all of the children

We all know how dangerous Marty Golden can be behind the
wheel of his car;we even know that he can be dangerous to
others and is very unpredictable when he is a passenger in a chauffeur-driven
car…..

There is plenty of documentary evidence that“Senator-Lead Foot” Marty Golden is
especially dangerous to our children around their schools

Last week, in a jibe at John Quaglione for saying to the press
that,in addition to everything else he has
done,Marty Golden had advocated that
all state senators should go back to Albany---in an attempt to be funny at
John Q’s expense, I made a terrible blunder;I said that the children living in State Senator Golden’s district would
be safer if he stayed in Albany

---NOTHING COULD BE FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH---AND I DO ABJECTLY AND COMPLETELY APOLOGIZE TO ALL THE CHILDREN, THEIR
PARENTS, AND TO THOSE ADVOCATES FOR CHILDREN,WHOM I HAD SO BLATANTLY MISS-SERVED IN MY MOMENT OF WORD-PLAY AND WHIMSY---

--- STATE SENATOR MARTIN GOLDEN IS A FAR GREATER DANGER TO THE
CHILDREN IN HIS DISTRICT, IN NEW YORK---AND BY RIPPLE EFFECT,CHILDREN EVERYWHERE---WHEN
HE IS IN ALBANY FUNCTIONING AS A NEW YORK STATE SENATOR ANDVICE-CHAIRMAN OF THE REPUBLICAN “MAJORITY”
CONFERENCE OF THE NEW YORK STATE SENATE---IN WHICH POSITIONS HE HAS NOW
REPEATEDLY FOILED TWO MAJOR PIECES OF CHILD-PROTECTION LEGISLATION:THE CHILD VICTIMS ACT(PROTECTION AGAINST PEDOPHILES)---AND---THE EVERY SCHOOL SPEED CAMERA ACT (PROTECTION
FOR CHILDREN AGAINST HIGH-SPEED DRIVERS AROUND SCHOOLS)---

It’s been widely reported that
---“…‘As the rest of America continues to decry sexual abuse and
harassment, [State Senator Martin] Golden remains firmly planted on the wrong side of history,
allowing hidden predators to continue inflicting pain and damage on our
communities,’ said
Steve Jimenez, a founding member of New Yorkers Against Hidden Predators, which
organized the demonstration [at Golden’s Bay Ridge office]. ‘The inaction of him and his
Republican colleagues in the Senate is a disgrace, and New Yorkers are making
it known they have had have enough.”By comparison,State Senator Golden recently almost seemed
nonchalant and blaze on the issue saying that he didn’t see
an “impetus” to pass any legislation last year[2017].Julianne
McShane went on to observe that“The
bill is currently stalled in the Senate Judiciary Committee and still has no
floor vote scheduled — a fact
protesters in Albany decried the day the legislature returned from its
mid-winter break on Feb. 27, complaining that Senate Majority Leader John
Flanagan wasn’t allowing the bill to come to the floor….”(Seee.g.“Locals
call for Golden to support legislation protecting victims of child sex crimes”by
Julianne McShane, 3/2/18, Courier Life’s Brooklyn Daily [https://www.brooklyndaily.com/stories/2018/9/br-golden-child-victims-act-protest-2018-03-02-bk.html]).

Almost the identical pattern has been
followed by State SenatorMarty Golden in his opposition to protecting children around schools by the use of
speed-cams(that issue has recently been quite well covered by the media as a whole, and by this blog in particular).

So you see --- whether it's pedophiles or speeding cars around schools, Marty Golden treats it all like it's no problem worth doing anything about --- that is a very bad situation indeed for our children and grand-children.

No matter how you slice it, keeping State Senator Martin J. Golden in a Republican
“majority” leadership position in Albany is very bad for the wellbeing of all
children, especially the ones in the neighborhoods in and around Golden’s home
district in Brooklyn.

ALSO DON’T BE FOOLED BY CRAFTY CONSULTANT-DRIVEN
MANEUVERS TO SUPPORT PHONY FACE-SAVING BILLS THAT ONLY >>> LOOK AND SOUND LIKE <<< THEY ARE ADDRESSING THE DANGERS FACED BY SO
MANY OF OUR CHILDREN AND GRAND-KIDS ---THOSE BILLS INTRODUCED IN THE REPUBLICAN-CONTROLLED STATE SENATE REALLY DON’T ADDRESS OR REMEDY THE REAL PROBLEMS --- DEEP AND INTRACTABLE SOCIOPATHIC BEHAVIORS; AND, EQUALLY IMPORTANT, THEY HAVE NO CHANCE(S) OF PASSING INTO ACTUAL LAW(S) --- OR AS MARTY GOLDEN SO GLIBLY AND FALSELY PUT IT ABOUT THE REAL REMEDIAL LEGISLATION, REALLY AND TRULY THERE IS “NO IMPETUS” FOR >>> HIS <<< PHONY BILLS

YOU ARE THE GHOST OF ANN ENGLISH AND ELECTION SCHEMES PAST --- YOU AND JOE CAME OVER TO THE CONSERVATIVES AND REPUBLICANS NEAR THE END AND YOU SUDDENLY HAD A NEW BUNCH OF FRIENDS --- BUT IN YOUR HEARTS YOU STAYED DEMOCRATS (AND WASN'T IT >>> YOUR <<< VOTE THAT MADE CLARENCE NORMAN THE DEMOCRATIC COUNTY LEADER BACK IN THE DAY ???) --- I REMEMBER JOE'S TESTIMONIAL FOR YOU AT THE SEERGY CLUB, ALL THE SLIDES WERE OF YOU WITH DEMOCRATS (DID CLORINDA EVEN NOTICE ???)

I remember when you told me that Marty Golden was going to become a Republican and run for the City Council; right after that, the Conservatives gave him their coveted "Beaver Award" (boy did Marty and his friends get a big laugh about that when it was awarded by Fran V & Jerry K in the old firehouse on 69th Street that had become an American Legion Hall); and around that time Joe got Marty and Jack Malone to join the AOH (Joe thought they were a real "get," because of their restaurant and catering holdings).

Your Democrat contacts never got you the Indians' Casino you were angling for and you said that you thought you would do better with the Republicans. You never got that casino, but Jack Malone got his OTB Super Track deal for Lorelie's/ Hunter's.....

Sorry guys but it sounds like a lot of wishful thinking about Marty losing. He is trouncing Gounardes in the polls, no one knows who Barkan is and he is campaigning like he is in a district on the west side of Manhattan. Cuomo got so frustrated he tried to bring Gentile late in to the game. Golden will win and if Q was purposely trying to hurt Golden maybe it's to try to make it a remotely interesting race.

NEITHER MY MAIN POST ABOUT THE SPEED-CAMS AND THE ANTI-PEDOPHILE BILLS NOR ANY OF THE COMMENTS ON THIS THREAD, SO FAR, SAID THAT MARTY GOLDEN WAS GOING TO LOSE IN 2018 --- SO, STOP SETTING UP THE STRAW MAN

What I wanted to make clear was that Marty Golden's continuing as a state senator would be bad for children everywhere.

Think about it. Golden is absolutely against giving justice to the victims of pedophiles the one certain way of breaking up huge rings of pedophiles, still quite active in some of our most respected institutions. Golden is also absolutely against the most effective tool yet in slowing down speeders, like Golden himself, in school safety zones.

Let's face it, nice guy Marty Golden is in reality somebody that has some real blind spots when it come to certain threats to our children and grand-children.

He also thinks that certain people should remain above the law, and that even the rules of common decency shouldn't apply to them. At the top of his own special list in this regard is HIMSELF. He thinks that no rules should apply to him, regardless of the negative consequences to others. That's why I think he has earned his new title: "SENATOR SOCIOPATH".....

So Colleen Golden just posted on Facebook that someone hiding behind a tree on their block taking photos of their car while her and Marty unloading groceries and saying car parked on sidewalk..

So, it's wrong to do to them, but ok for their staffer or friends to do to Capano..what's good for the goose is good for the gander...what goes around comes around....maybe Kassar and Golden should express outrage at both and not just selectively..

GOSH !!! MARTY AND HIS CLAN QUICKLY PLAYING THE VICTIM'S CARD --- FIRST, IT SHOWS DESPERATION AT A VERY EARLY STAGE IN THE GAME; --- SECOND, GIVEN THEIR MANIFEST LACK OF EMPATHY FOR THE REAL VICTIMS, IT SHOWS THAT MARTY GOLDEN MIGHT NOT BE THE ONLY >>> SOCIOPATH <<< IN THE FAMILY; AND--- THIRD, "STALKING" ??? REALLY !!!

Newspaper people have staked out Marty Golden at his home before, when other scandals were brewing. This probably this is just more of the same; and obviously the Goldens don't like it.

Let's see what happens next; and how Marty responds --- I'll bet he's ready to blow.....

It should surprise no one if at the time Colleen noticed the “photographer” if Alexandra and Robert were in the area collecting petitions. Jerry has promised them a lot and they’re crazy enough to take things into their own hands if he doesn’t deliver promptly.

A few parents of deceased children demonstrated against Golden on 5th Avenue in front of his office, some parents and pols cared enough to try slowing down and then blocking traffic, and some of those even chose to get arrested rather than clear the street.Golden's flacks dismissed the whole thing.Now, the Goldens complain about photogs in the bushes.Does Colleen actually think that she's being chased for being like "Donna Rice" doing "Monkey Business" with her own Garry Hart pants?Get over it! That scandal was about a trip to Bimini not speeding around schools in Brooklyn, it was on a very nice boat not a Cadillac brand car and it involved a U.S. Senator running for president not a state senator struggling for re-election.

What is sad is that all these years it never got so personal and ugly before, there were standards of civility and decency. Never got this ugly, people weren't stalking each other on the subway and outside of offices stores or worst of all outside of houses. Only one person on the right found these tactics acceptable and that was Jerry. Now he found a couple of psycho rich kids from Manhattan with way too much time on their hands who are gladly willing to do his bidding. Look at the things people are saying and doing. I think we all need to take a step back take some deep breaths and realize it's just not worth stooping to their level or responding in kind. This has gotten way out of control and and we should remember the law of unintended consequences.

After campaigning as Mr Trump Republican, Capano lost bad and abandoned the republican party and stabbed them in the back when he sabotaged Q in the council race. That was the Republicans best shot. He tried to play a slick move by making Marty compete for the Reform line and Marty turned it down. Now he attacks Liam publicly and talks trash about Dianro and Saperstein. If he left the Republican Party, why does he care so much about it. Because he wants what he can't have - relevance. He is a sad little man.

Nobody wants the line. Other than congressman Donavan, who is running with that partys support? I doubt they stay around very much longer. If Marty wanted it how come he rejected it. Democrats dont want it either.

Donovan has the line and will make good use of it once he wins re-election and has to staff the Brooklyn Office. You think after a primary like that the home office don’t notice everybody in Brooklyn who was going with Grimm had one thing in common.

Speaking of afraid.. It's obvious that Bob wanted to hurt Marty in this situation but did not have the guts to refuse the line to the senator. Capano wants to be a tough guy, talks like a tough guy (on line and anonymously) but ends up looking like a coward because he can't pull the endorsement so he sets up a cute "open election". If he doesn't have the balls to make hard decisions he will never be a successful party chairman he will just be another hack.

Incredible claims and charges of schemes and conspiracies about, and possibly by, some "consultants," who aren't even worthy of that title, do not immediately become more "credible" just because the fools might actually have engaged in some fruitless deeds aimed at achieving some of the incredible stuff.

Similarly, the charges leveled at certain third party chairmen, and their apparent defenses and/or the comments by their defenders don't gain very much credibility because there is some truth buried in there somewhere.

Bottom line, if it looks and sounds as stupid as what most of the deleted comments said, nobody that really cares about the Brooklyn GOP going forward has any interest in getting down into the "reality" or non-reality of any of it.

What happenes to Golden is irrelevant, the fact that he is in a position where he has to fight so hard to keep the seat is a product of alienating so many people through his time in office because of his insane thirst for complete control of every aspect of the Brooklyn GOP. Look where it’s gotten us, we lost the City Council race to a socialist loud mouthed pig, that loss was the only respectable result we got in the entire borough. Now this year our party has been reduced to worrying about people like Gounardes or Barkan another two socialists taking the same seat that Golden once easily won from Gentile. And this same seat is the only one that Republicans have any shot of winning in Brooklyn. We can’t even claim credit for big Donovan win in Brooklyn because our Chairman and his top lieutenants we’re organizing for Grimm. You can’t make this stuff up. Oh and as a non Bay Ridge obsessed Republican somehow supposed to be impressed or disturbed by Golden holding on to the seat. No thanks.

Word is a former City Council candidate has a restraining order and a current female congressional candidate almost went to the Police. Only someone as low class as the chair of the KCCP would get people like that involved around here.

Yes Rebecca Harrah, Naomi Levin and Andrea Cats all can't stand Alexandra...and what do they all have in common, they all know, like , and work with Capano..Alexandrias attempt at revenge totally backfired

Rebecca was and Naomi is a reform party candidate, so all this is fact.

WOW!Now, <> is going after Marty Golden and SOMEBODY in his office for misusing government time and equipment to post fake social media messages on pseudonym sites. FightBackBR says they are going to identify and memorialize any similar phony messages that appear both on Golden's official accounts and also on what look like fake pseudonym accounts on their own FightBackBR site.Isn't anybody going to shut crazy John Quaglione's rogue Twitter operation down before he does some real damage to his boss? Where is Kassar in all this?

Let's face it all of the Offices do this and Fight Back BR is a socialist sight devoted to Justin Brannan. They also have a bunch of fake accounts and sites. The fact is Chris McCreight, Justin Brannan, and Jonathan Yedin control dozens of fake accounts and if you took away their tweeting during business hours they would have nervous breakdowns. They're just smarter about how to use them. However, the latest gaffes by Golden operatives are so amateur it lends credibility to whoever said maybe Marty is trying to lose. Kasssar and the people he's assembled are used to street ops and dirty tactics on the ground. He's still living in the 1960's and that's why he's brought on the crazies from the Upper East Side. In a word, Golden team still playing checkers while Dems playing chess.

Is this the kind of corruption that Ross Barkan will end.And did anybody here notice that he was the only senate candidate against Golden mentioned recently in an article in the "Indypendent" - what's with that?

Translation: Ross has given up already. Small band of progressives on Barkan campaign still outnumber number of progressives in the district. Gounardes will dwarf his filing as stuffy as he is seems like a rock star compared to Barkan who spends hours by himself in coffee houses and hipster bars hoping that someone anyone will engage him besides those asking for spare change.

Reporters on Twitter are all over Quaglione's fake accounts ..Gournades also nailed him..only a matter of time for Q to resign or fired for using Twitter for personal/political attacks while on taxpayer dime in Marty's office..

If 10:12 is right and City and State is doing a feature on Marry Golden’s vulnerability, it will be devoted entirely to Jerry Kassar. Jerry is the main reason Golden is having so much trouble. He’s burned more bridges than Sherman’s march to the sea.

Jerry is a great chairman for the liberal progressives hoping to take over in southwest Brooklyn. He's made more enemies for Marty Golden than they could ever dream. Hynes lost because of his ridiculous advice and all the enemies he made. After that he made sure no Brooklyn Republican besides Golden could ever be viable.

Every Republican in the district is hoping that Ross Barkan’s hysterical delusional rantings on this blog about winning the primary so we can relax and win the general easy. Here’s also hoping that Jerry Kassar moves to Florida and takes his puppet Ted Ghorra with him.

7:23 another clueless sycophant writing whatever they tell him, GOP would never run someone against Felder as long as he is caucusing with them. Was it 2012 we started to realize the cons were paper tigers when Felder beat their candidate on an OTB effort?

FIRST, "CLUELESS SYCOPHANT" !!! WHOMEVER COULD IT POSSIBLY BE TO WHOM YOU MIGHT BE REFERRING ??? (BTW, THAT IS AN IMPLIED TWO PART QUESTION..... SINCE SYCOPHANTIC BEHAVIOR REQUIRES BOTH A FAWNING SUBJECT AND A TRANSFORMATIONALLY INSPIRING OBJECT OF THE SUPPOSEDLY DISPROPORTIONAL ADORATION)

SECOND, SINCE NEITHER GOLDEN NOR FELDER HAVE EVER STOOD UP FOR "CONSERVATIVE VALUES" IT IS QUITE UNLIKELY THAT THEY WOULD EVER CONSTITUTE ANY "LAST LINE OF DEFENSE FOR CONSERVATIVE VALUES"

Republicans in Brooklyn don't need Simcha Felder or anybody else to caucus with the Republicans in the NYS Senate, because NYS Republicans in the NYS Senate don't deserve to rule that body; and real Republicans all around the state would be better off if they did not.

Simcha Felder is nothing but a shakedown artist for all kinds of socialistic programs that benefit one and only one community, Orthodox Jews. In addition, he has labored and lobbied for special rules to keep state wide performance standards from applying to certain religious schools that he wants to continue getting public financing, even though they don't even attempt to make the academic grade made by even failing public schools.

.... And don't even get me started on how both Felder and Golden have facilitated the coverup of pedophilia in Roman Catholic and Orthodox Jewish institutions.

The only way Simcha Felder can possibly lose and even then its unlikely is if he puts Jerry Kassar in charge of his reelection campaign. He ran David Storobin's reelection campaign and not only did David not even get close to winning, he lost the conservative nomination on an OTB challenge. Things that make you go hmmm.

HOPEFULLY, TO KEEP SOME OF THE ANTI-FELDER CROWD FROM BREAKING INTO THE "HORST WESSEL LIED"; AND PERHAPS TO MAKE FELDER'S SUPPORTERS THINK TWICE --- THERE ARE SOME >>> GOOD <<< REASONS TO OPPOSE SIMCHA ON WHATEVER LINES HE MIGHT BE RUNNING IN NOVEMBER

BOB CAPANO AND CURTIS SLIWA UPSTAGE KASSAR AND THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY ONE MORE TIME --- BOOH-YAH !!!

There is a lengthy and detailed article that appeared in "The Patch" yesterday. It pretty much gives the chapter and verse on the Reform Party's opposition to State Senator Simcha Felder (D-R-C), as well as an intro to his opponent, Luis Rivera (See "Guardian Angel Takes On Simcha Felder In State Senate Race..." by Kathleen Culliton, 7/10/18, The Patch/ Government & Politics/ Windsor Terrace-Kensington [https://patch.com/new-york/windsorterrace/guardian-angel-takes-simcha-felder-state-senate-race]).

The Patch's article closes with this: "... should Felder win the nomination [in a possible Democrat Primary], he will head toward November's election unopposed, which is why the Brooklyn Reform Party is running [its own] candidate, chairman Bob Capano said in a statement.... 'While the GOP and other parties play dead for Simcha Felder, we will have a candidate because voters always deserve a choice,' Capano said. 'Luis Rivera is the right alternative to stand up for students, parents, and [Brooklyn] in Albany.'..."

I'm sure people supporting the likes of Joe Crowley, "Joe" Hynes, Frank Padavan, Bob DiCarlo and Angelo Arculeo all said the same thing.FYI, asshole, I am sure Barkan and Gounardes are wide awake and would like to know who the fuck you think they need to apologize to and for what?

Darn Ross, sorry you are so angry but you ran in the wrong district. Nobody cares if you act "tough" on an anonymous blog. Go apologize to all the poor unsuspecting fools who are financing your summer of irrelevance as you spend all day and night at coffee houses and pubs pretending to campaign for a seat you know you not only won't win but won't get within twenty points in the primary. Hope that helps Ross. As for Andrew, he is still crying about fat boy Brannan not letting him run in the Assembly race and making him the polished and articulate but still sacrificial lamb to Marty Golden who is up 50 points in the polling.

Golden is up 50 points to Gounardes and Barkan which is why Gov advisers did their own polling with hypothetical alternatives which showed Gentile beating Golden and is why they tried to persuade him to run but Justin discouraged him.
